    1/87 Scale Mercedes Benz Lo 2750 Mobelwagen (Moving Van) Completed

    Here are the rest of the completed shots of this unusual vehicle. I posted a pic in the background showing a couple of different versions of this conscripted type. Most of these moved men and material across the vast Russian Steppes in June of 1941 as you can see from the weathering, it was quite dusty. Enjoy, Rick H.Click image for larger version

            How can I say no to you lot. I guess I'll have to get the old "Brownie" camera out and see what I can do. Thank you all for your comments and enthusiasm in my collection of "Misfit" toys. Cheers, Rick H.

                    Thanks Scottie, I'll work on getting some shots together, I guess I could start a new thread in the completed softskins section. Thank you for the kind words Peter, I do enjoy modeling unusual and conscripted vehicles the Germans used. Seems there was an endless supply.
                    Thanks Steven, They were pretty much a one off type as they were not originally made for the Wehrmacht. But sort of drafted into service from the civilian businesses who happened to have them on hand. I have even seen photos of circus wagons being towed into combat after a hasty paint job of Schwazgrau or Dunkelgelb. Thank you all again for your interest. Rick H.
